Posto isolato ideale per rilassarsi, non è un hotel, è un luogo privilegiato per passare il tempo a riflettere, no tv, no internet (solo nella casa principale), cucina e frigo da condividere con gli ospiti come in un ostello, piscina principale di acqua sorgente, non capisco i commenti negativi, prima di prenotare si possono leggere tutte le informazioni prima, per noi è stata una scoperta, la Certosa è bellissima e immersa nella natura e si è vero è pieno di insetti e animali, normale siamo in mezzo a un bosco!!!! +++++

Una experiencia inolvidable. Nuestra familia se alojó durante un fin de semana para celebrar nuestro 25 aniversario de boda. He de decir que el alojamiento superó nuestras expectativas. Si bien todo está impregnado de un caracter sencillo y austero, al fin y al cabo se trata de un monasterio, el paraje natural es de una gran belleza y el monumento respira paz y autenticidad. Eramos casi 30 huéspedes y todos estuvimos confortablemente alojados. El trato del personal fue extraordinario, muy cercano y servicial en todo momento. Mención especial merece Carolina, gerente del monasterio, la cual atendió pacientemente todas nuestras peticiones y nos aconsejó respecto a la contratación del catering, el dj que amenizó el evento, etc. Una gran profesional que hizo de nuestra estancia una experiencia inolvidable.

Está bastante abandonado, aunque hay que reconocer que mantenerlo debe ser muy caro. Estuvimos con la experiencia de ver las perseguidas y el cielo con telescopio y la verdad que nos lo pasamos estupendamente. Bien en un ambiente muy agradable

La vi por primera vez en el año 91 y la verdad es que me he llevado una agradable sorpresa de ver todo lo que se avanzó reconstruyendo y conservando. Solo he ido a visitarla no he utilizado hospedaje.
